Bonus- Boutique Blu Ray Label Interview with Author/Critic/Scholar Nathaniel Thompson of Mondo-Digital!!

Nathaniel Thompson is EVERYWHERE surrounding film and physical media nowadays. He has been present on releases from the vast majority of these boutique labels, he has appeared in multiple series on Shudder, written multiple books surrounding the industry, and is possibly most known for being the individual behind Mondo-Digital.com. He is genuinely one of the most prolific film scholars/contributors of our time. We had a lengthy discussion about so many different topics including how these labels get rights for films, how German crime films need more representation on physical media, how other commentators (including the recently passed Sergio Mims) work together to make a good commentary that will interest film fans, and SO MUCH MORE. Please watch this incredibly enjoyable discussion with Nathaniel Thompson! - Note: Sergio Mims passed away suddenly this week. You will see/hear a short piece about him at the beginning because he came up organically in our conversation.  Sergio's obituary: https://chicago.suntimes.com/obituaries/2022/10/6/23391442/sergio-mims-movie-critic-black-harvest-film-festival-obituary Sergio's Conversation with Lee Gambin: https://diaboliquemagazine.com/episode-12-a-conversation-with-sergio-mims - Stay up to date with Mondo-Digital here: http://mondo-digital.com Follow Mondo-Digital on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063548171855 Follow Mondo-Digital on Twitter: https://twitter.com/mondodigital Follow Mondo-Digital on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mondodig/ Follow Nathaniel Thompson/Mondo-Digital on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/mondodigital/ Nathaniel's list of all (or, at least most) of the Commentaries he has appeared on: https://letterboxd.com/mondodigital/list/audio-commentaries-ive-done/ Nathaniel's ranked list on Crime films (mostly German crime films): https://letterboxd.com/mondodigital/list/krimis-ranked/ Nathaniel's ranked Jess Franco list: https://letterboxd.com/mondodigital/list/jess-franco-ranked/ Order Nathaniel's book that releases next week in the US: https://amzn.to/3CGHpCN - Become a patron here: https://www.patreon.com/DiscConnected - Like the page and follow on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/TheDiscConnected - Join me on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/thediscconnected/ - Or on Twitter: https://twitter.com/disc_connected - Email: [email protected] -- Merch: https://disc-connected.creator-spring.com/ - Podcast: https://thediscconnected.podbean.com - If you happen to be shopping on Amazon for something and would like to share some of Lord Bezos' profits with my channel at no additional cost to you, please consider shopping through my link: https://amzn.to/39mcX1t - Tip Jar: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=TDEVSPJZ9EFCW or paypal.me/RVinls (friends and family only) or  Amazon wish list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/20CR2ZN456P1B?ref_=wl_share - Music is by Michael J.
